Where professional creators share with you tools, so you can thrive... while your'e still ALIVE!
Wilfrid Wood’s plasticine clay sculptures are truly one of a kind. His sculptures are refreshingly honest and playful. He merges portraiture with the absurdity of the human experience into something completely unique and raw. I absolutely love and am inspired by this work! He also has a running project where he draws a live sitter everyday with pastels on coloured paper.
Wilfrid was born in London and grew up in rural Sussex. He studied graphics at Central St. Martins, then got a job in publishing. He got bored of that and applied to train as a 'headbuilder' for the satirical TV program Spitting Image. When that ended he became a freelance sculptor.
He lives in East London and his studio is in Hackney Wick, right next to the Olympics.
